Meinberg LANTIME M200 - NTP time server with GPS receiver provides high-precision time base to a TCP/IP network (Stratum-1-Server). It utilizes Network Time Protocol (NTP) to synchronize NTP clients with the reference. As Meinberg LANTIME M200 has an integrated GPS receiver, single-board computer, and power supply, it is ready to operate right out of the box. It features eight push buttons and a display for easy configuration. Remote configuration of the time server is also possible via TELNET, FTP, or a web browser through an integrated web server.

This building-in equipment has been designed and tested in accordance with the requirements of Standard

IEC60950-1 "Safety of Information Technology Equipment, including Electrical Business Equipment".

During installation of the building-in equipment in an end application (i.e. rack) additional requirements

in accordance with Standard IEC60950-1 have to be taken into account.

• The building-in equipment is a class 1 - equipment and must be connected to an earthed outlet

(TN Power System).

• The building-in equipment has been evaluated for use in oﬃce environment (pollution degree 2) and

may be only used in this environment. For use in rooms with a higher pollution degree more stringent

requirements are applicable.

• The building-in equipment may not be opened.

• Protection against ﬁre must be assured in the end application.

• The ventilation opening may not be covered.

• The equipment/building-in equipment was evaluated for use in a maximum ambient temperature of 50

3 Global Information LANTIME M200/GPS

The LANTIME (Local Area Network Time Server) provides a high precision time base to a TCP/IP network

(Stratum-1-Server). The NTP (Network Time Protocol) is used to synchronize all NTP clients with the refer-

ence. The several LANTIME variants diﬀer from each other by the time reference and output conﬁguration. A

GPS or GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou) receiver, GNS-UC (only GPS and Galileo) , a long wave

receiver (like DCF77, MSF or WWVB) or an IRIG time code receiver can be integrated as an internal reference

as well as a combination of these references (hybrid system). External references are also possible.

The LANTIME system is a set of equipment composed of an integrated GPS receiver, a single-board com-

puter and a power supply, all installed in a metal 19 inch modular chassis and ready to operate. A simpliﬁed

LINUX operating system is installed on the single-board computers ﬂash disk. Eight push buttons and a display

can be used to conﬁgure and monitor the time server.

After the network connection has been establi shed the time server can also be conﬁgured and monitored

remotely from a workstation via TELNET or FTP. An integrated web server enables access to the LANTIME by

using an ordinary web browser.

6.3 USB Port

All devices of the LANTIME M-Series dispose a USB

interface, which can be used to plug in a USB Stick.

The USB Stick can be deployed for the following tasks:

• to lock the keys on the LC-Display, to prevent

unauthorized access

• to save the LANTIME conﬁguration

• to transfer the conﬁguration between several

LANTIMES

• to save log ﬁles

6.4 Terminal

To connect a serial terminal (according to the device

model), use the RJ45 connector of the LAN-CPU. Via

the serial terminal connection it is possible to con-

ﬁgure parameters with a command line interface. You

have to use a CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 cable to establish

a connection to your PC or Laptop computer. You can

use e.g. the standard Hyperterminal program shipped

with your Windows operating system. Conﬁgure your

terminal program with 38400 Baud, 8 Databits, no

parity and 1 Stopbit. The terminal emulation have to

set to VT100. After connecting to the timeserver there

will be displayed the login message (press RETURN

7 Mounting the GPS Antenna

The GPS satellites are not stationary, but circle round the globe with a period of about 12 hours. They can only

be received if no building is in the line-of-sight from the antenna to the satellite, so the antenna/downconverter

unit must be installed in a location that has as clear a view of the sky as possible. The best reception is

achieved when the antenna has a free view of 8

◦

angular elevation above the horizon. If this is not possible, the

antenna should be installed with the clearest free view to the equator, because the satellite orbits are located

between latitudes 55

◦

North and 55

◦

South. If this is not possible, you may experience diﬃculty receiving the

four satellites necessary to complete the receiver’s position solution.

The antenna/converter unit can be mounted on a wall, or on a pole up to 60 mm in diameter. A 50 cm

plastic tube, two wall-mount brackets, and clamps for pole mounting are included. A standard RG58 coaxial

cable should be used to connect the antenna/downconverter unit to the receiver. The maximum length of cable

between antenna and receiver depends on the attenuation factor of the coaxial cable.

Up to four GPS receivers can be run with one antenna/downconverter unit by using an optional antenna

splitter. The total length of an antenna line from antenna to receiver must not be longer than the max. length

shown in the table below. The position of the splitter in the antenna line does not matter.

The optional delivered MBG S-PRO protection kit can also be used for outdoor installation (degree of protec-

tion: IP55). However, we recommend an indoor installation, as close as possible to the wall where the antenna

cable is entering, to minimize the risk of overvoltage damage, for example by lightning.

7.2 Antenna Assembly with Surge Voltage Protection

Optional a surge voltage protector for coaxial lines is available. The shield has to be connected to earth as

short as possible by using the included mounting bracket. Normally you connect the antenna converter directly

with the antenna cable to the system.

(systems with front display only)

In case of an antenna line short-circuit the following message appears in the display:

If this message appears the clock has to be disconnected from the mains and the defect eliminated. After that

the clock can be powered-up again. The antenna supply voltage must be 15VDC .
